Dude we drafted Petey Jones from Remember the Titans. Formerly highly regarded RB that was able to make a switch to LB.

LMAO!!! But it could work he does have above average speed from being a RB so going from sideline to sideline shouldn't be a problem. He could just be there to blitz and rush the passer we did lead the league in blitzing last year I think.

Glenn only played one year at LB, I don't think anyone can really judge his potential based on one year of learning a defensive system. He has great athleticism, the question is really whether he can get down the mental part of the defense. I'm not going to complain about this pick until I see what happens. It's a risky pick, but one that has some significant upside if he works out.

When Vinny talked about this selection, he specifically said he talked with the coach. Chances are the Skins already knew what the real reason is. This goes back to my general argument that we spectators rarely know as much as the FO people do. Even if we think we do.

(BTW - if we had picked up Duke in the 5th, this might have been one of the best drafts ever. I would have been happy to have picked up Duke at the end of the 1st. I couldn't believe he was still there in the 5th. Does anyone know why he dropped so far so fast?)

They were using the same draft board as the Vinny Cerrato and company. You know the one that had Cody Glen rated ahead of Duke Robinson.

THANK YOU!! I was scared my Petey Jones comment had gone unnoticed.

there we go..lets sign Petey Jones at LB.. he is actually in my family... gotta rep for the Titans man!! in all seriousness I thought they reached big time on Glenn.. maybe in the 7th round, but I doubt anyone was really lookin at him in the 5th.
